Calathea Burle Marx - Live Plant

This item may be out of season or currently out of stock. Please check back.

The best thing about this plant is... it so much easier to keep happy compared to many Calatheas, not to mention the flashy foliage!

Details: The Burle Marx stands out among Calatheas with its wishbone patterned leaves. A stylish addition to any office space. 

Like all Calatheas, this plant requires a little extra TLC to look its best. Care includes avoiding excessively dry air, wiping down the broad leaves to keep dust off and finding a good balance between deep watering and allowing the soil to dry a just little. Light wise, this is a houseplant that is happiest in medium to low light.

Sometimes classified as Ctenanthe burle marxii. Typically offered in 6" organic wood fibre eco-pots. 

Shipping?

Sage Garden grows many unique varieties... so live plant shipping within Canada is available for select varieties mid-June through mid-October. We do not ship plants during freezing weather or during particularly hot weather - both of these situations are very hard on plants in transit. 

 

Please note: customers are responsible for the full actual shipping charges (Canada Post or UPS) and understand that Sage Garden cannot take responsibility for damages that occur in shipping. 

Plant size and condition

The plants photographed for web listings are representative but it is important to note that each plant is different, and maturity and fullness change with the seasons. Some plants go semi-dormant in winter, and transitional leaf drop is common for some plants when settling into a new home... this is considered normal. Decor pots featured in photos are available separately and are not included unless specifically noted in the description.

Care Tip #1

There is a lot less light indoors, especially as you move away from windows. Start by placing all indoor plants in the brightest location available and tune things from there.

Care Tip #2

Indoor plants benefit from regular showering! This keeps leaves dust-free so they can photosynthesize to their full potential, and also reduces the chances of pests occurring on houseplants.
